Design & Performance
The straight-through, non-offset body design promotes smooth, unrestricted gas flow while minimizing pressure drop across the valve. The internal bleed configuration eliminates the need for external bleed lines, reducing installation complexity and potential leak points. Rapid opening action ensures quick response to thermostat or control system demand, supporting efficient system startup and operation.
Installation
The 1/8″-27 NPT pilot tapping provides a convenient connection point for pilot gas supply. Flexible upright or horizontal mounting orientation accommodates a wide range of equipment configurations. The 1/2 PSI pressure rating makes this valve suitable for standard low-pressure gas systems.
Applications
- Commercial and residential gas-fired heating equipment
- Furnaces and boilers requiring 1-1/2″ gas valve connections
- Systems demanding high-capacity gas flow up to 2,300 CFH
- Replacement or upgrade of existing on/off gas valves
